From MABA President Chuck Lippstreu:
Today we announced that beginning next year, in 2025, MABA’s annual dues will increase for the first time in eight years. This dues adjustment will be approximately 12.5% over the current dues. This new dues amount will remain the same from 2025 through 2028. The Board of Directors and I agree that a periodic review and adjustment of dues, on a predictable basis, is prudent management and provides certainty for all of you.
Here is a chart demonstrating these new investment levels:

All results achieved by our team are ultimately made possible through your strong support.

The Michigan Agri-Business Association encourages member companies, and everyone in Michigan agriculture, to communicate about the unique safety considerations around the solar eclipse happening next Monday, April 8. In addition to reminders being circulated widely in the media about the potential for eye damage from directly viewing the eclipse, other risks include the distractive nature of the event itself, and the temporary darkness associated with it.
The eclipse also takes place as the busy spring planting season ramps up, underscoring the need to be aware of unique safety considerations during this phenomenon.
